LYRIC:

All I ever did
While you were here
Was done for you
Or so I said
Perhaps through fear
That nothing less
Would make you stay

All I'd ever done
Or ever was
Meant something new
Or so I thought
Perhaps because
The past seemed night
And this seemed day

All I'd ever seen was black and white
All I'd ever sung was off-key
All I'd ever spoken sounded trite
And then with you I was all the things I wished to be

All I ever did
While you were here
Was done for you
Now through my tears
I'm asking why
All you ever said
Was Goodbye
